Very nice and it does resemble P. insigne. You can view more photos here for comparison: http://www.aroidpictures.fr/GE...

Also, additional photos and information can be found on this page: http://www.exoticrainforest.co...

If you do positively ID the plant as Philodendron insigne, I hope you will consider uploading a few photos to our database: Philodendron insigne

Upon further googling, it also resembles Philodendron linnaei: http://www.exoticrainforest.co...

The Exotic Rainforest page says P. insigne also looks just like Dieffenbachia paludicola

The inflorescence of P. linnaei is the reverse of the pic, and that of Dieffenbachia paludicola I *think* is primarily white.
